Recent trend in price of crude oil (Source: Macrotrends.net, 2020)
Crude Oil Prices - Historical Annual Data • British pound depreciated by -19.7% against the US dollar (Ferrer Lapeña et al. 2017) • The weak local currency of the UK makes British export pay for in stringer US currency, relatively less expensive for the global buyers • High rates of exports of crude oil changed the price of the product (Ferrer Lapeña et al. 2017) • Crude oil gained importance as it contributes to one third of the energy resources • Heavier products obtained from crude oil provides rise to several by-products • Crude oil process fell further after the latest report of Energy Information Administration • Reports suggest 453.7 million barrels of crude oil were 3% below 5 year average (Benkraiem et al. 2018) • EIA reported an inventory build of 7.7 million barrels adding to the price pressure (Benkraiem et al. 2018) (Source: Macrotrends.net, 2020)
Global Crude Oil Market: Drivers and Restraints • Income of the populace (Rahmanian et al. 2016) • Reduction in price of automobiles fuels the purchase of automobiles making it important to make use of crude oil purchase • Crude oil is produced by relatively small companies and in remote locations making the demand of crude oil more (Rahmanian et al. 2016) • Crude oil is a naturally occurring substance and is useful in both processed and unprocessed forms • The demand for the product is directly proportional to the growth of the global energy market • Countries such as the US have high demands for crude oil as 45% of energy requirements are sourced from crude oils (Sanusi and Ahmad, 2016) (Source: Macrotrends.net, 2020)
Geographical Dynamics of the Global Crude Oil Market • Middle East is the market leader in the production of crude oil • Next is the EU region, followed by Russia as the major contributor within the Eurasian range. • In terms of consumptions, Asia Pacific coupled with China leads the chart for consumption of crude oil • The US is the largest consumer of crude oil as an individual country with 20% of global crude oil consumption (Prices, 2020)
Significant factors noted for analyzing the crude oil market • Increase in population by 2 billion by 2050 (Investopedia, 2020). • The increase in population would increase the demand for transportation thereby increasing the demand for crude oil • The increase in demand for crude oil would place the global crude oil market on the high growth of trajectory (Source: Macrotrends.net, 2020)
